What is this?

[heartland]

Anybody know what this plant might be? 5 leaves. Just started growing in my planter beds around the house this spring (or, at least that is when I first noticed them - may have been there last year and obscured by the groundcover).

I live in Dallas, TX area.

A form of Woodbine or Virginia Creeper? That is my first best guess.

I'm voting for Virginia Creeper.

Virginia Creeper, Parthenocissus quinquefolia
"Vigorous climbing vine. Looser growth and larger leaves than Boston Ivy. Red foliage in fall. Climbs to great heights."

It's pretty tough stuff. A lot of people initially mistake it for poison ivy until they look closer. Its an easy mistake to make since usually when I see it, there is a lot of poison ivy mixed in with it. It does look nice in the fall, we don't have enough plants that give fall color. Its a survivor.
